They got rid of the free zone in 2012: http://trimet.org/alerts/farechanges.htm -Fab From: mpi-forum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Wesley Bland Sent: Saturday, January 10, 2015 8:47 AM Is that not in the free zone?

It’s a bit further (still walkable), but the streetcar will drop you off kitty-corner from the building and should be close to any of the city center hotels.

I've got a govt rate room in the Hilton Portland & Executive Tower.

I don't know what the gov't rate is, isn't that what you'd get? Anyway, if you find something better, please let us know. -Fab -----Original Message----- From: mpi-forum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Balaji, Pavan Sent: Friday, January 9, 2015 11:46 PM FYI, the group rate of 179$ is way above the DOE max lodging costs (137$). I'd expect most DOE folks to not be able to use this. -- Pavan

Hi Folks,
Here's the link for the hotel room block. They only gave me the exact dates, I'm working with them to extend that a day before/after. I believe if you book by phone they can extend the stay, just not via the URL.
http://www.marriott.com/meeting-event-hotels/group-corporate-travel/groupCor...
You can also search for rooms using the MPIMPIA group code, but again it only works for the 2nd through 5th.
Will update everyone if I succeed in expanding the date range.
